Heres the start of my HOn3 adventure. It's a Blackstone K27 with a newly completed Campbell Sanding tower. Got a Westside models K27 that I got cheap on Ebay coming soon that I need to get painted and add a Sound decoder. That should be a fun project. Still have to redo the a section of my HO layout which allows me to finish the upper deck of the HOn3 layout.
My latest project is Branchline's Weimer's Grist Mill. Lots of work remains to be done. I'm using Bar Mills Bark Brown shingles on it, which I think look much better than the ones the kit came with. I just wish they had a sticky backing to them. I'm trying to figure out a better way of doing the brick or stone that goes around the bottom.
It's not really visible in this photo, but the insides received a coat of Oak stain, while the outside received a coat of Grey stain. The grey was then painted over and gives the exterior a look of depth.
